Tier 2 is hardly worth it, and the difference between an extra $10K a year to me, or $1800. Sure, $1800 is great....BUT it's a lot of visits, I have to fill out paperwork every day (FP doesn't accept online submission over here), and I'm always making the simplest mistakes, which would be caught by computer, but not when I write it out. So I can easily lose a week of money because I made a simple error (they are super strict). So I don't make $1800. Maybe $1200.
On another note, child care providers are not rich. We are not stealing money from the food program and running to Maui.
LOL yeah that is for sure, can you imagine the parents when they found out we were going on that vacation?
